Owning an antique, an object that is part of history, creates a special feeling: we wonder who it might have belonged to, what times its first owner lived in, and what their life was like.
The Antiques Collection is composed of genuine antiques for which we design gold settings, transforming them into unique and exclusive pieces of jewelry without altering them: no two are ever alike.
In addition to their beauty and historical significance, both the antique item and the gold will appreciate in value over time. Most importantly, this jewel will become part of your own story forever.
